28th Detonator [Video]

[nameofexorcist]

[The feed shows Kresnik leaning against a wall with his left hand holding his mangled right arm to his body. He tries to push back any pain from reaching his expression or voice, but it's still probably visible to most]

...I never encountered a monster with those qualities before...

[He closes his eyes and slowly starts to heal himself, but it will take some time for his arm to be fully restored again]

A word of warning, bullets have minimal effect on it.

[He's silent for a moment]

I... I was careless in my attacks. ...It's unacceptable behavior as a commander of Brionac.

I'm a commander, it's my duty to remain on guard at all times. There's no excuse for deviation from that behavior.

[fierybluebird]

Oh yeah, really? What in? I'm first division commander back home.

Commanders can still get caught off guard, eh.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Brionac, a unit of the Congressional Knights military.

If I'm caught off guard, it shows that I need to work on my own abilities more.

[fierybluebird]

Knights, huh?

Well, it's not like no one ever needs to get stronger. It's a tough competitive world, no matter where you are.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Yes, we function as a global military.

...I suppose that you're correct.

[fierybluebird]

So more like marines?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

We're more than just a navy force.

[fierybluebird]

Oh?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

We have soldiers trained for the land and air as well.

[fierybluebird]

I thought marines were meant to cover that too.

Well... what do you mean "air"?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Specific soldiers are trained to pilot aircraft.

[fierybluebird]

Huh. Your world has a lot of that?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Because the war ended, production of aircraft has slowed down.

[fierybluebird]

Oh, war against what?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

A 78 year war against the Global Union, a group of leaders from various countries.

[fierybluebird]

You fought against the World Government?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

No.

The war ended before I joined the Congressional Knights.

[fierybluebird]

I see.

[Trying to digest all of this.] So as a commander, you enforce what exactly?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...Ensure a future for my world.

[fierybluebird]

Care to be more specific?

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

Currently, protect Filgaia from people who are threatening to destroy it.

[fierybluebird]

Sounds like a similar job, eh.

Only hopefully you're better at it. [Soft grin.]

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...what work do you do as a commander?

[fierybluebird]

Keep a bunch of pirates in line. My old man and captain protected a bunch of islands in his day, so a lot of the real fighting is in keeping other pirates from trying to take it over for tributes or selling them into slavery.

[musicboxsoldier.livejournal.com]

...I see. You have land to protect as well.
